    The Terrain

    82 runs across 1,200 acres skiable

    Solitude sits at the head of Big Cottonwood Canyon in Utah's Wasatch Range, spread across 1,200 acres (486 hectares) with 82 runs. The base is at 7,990 ft (2,436 m) and the summit at 10,490 ft (3,197 m), a vertical of 2,500 ft (761 m). Intermediates lead at 43%, followed by 30% advanced, 21% expert and just 6% beginner, so the mountain leans towards confident skiers. Nine chairlifts serve the mountain, including the Eagle Express six-pack, and the resort sits beside Brighton, with the two sharing the SolBright pass.

    Honeycomb Canyon is the headline, a long valley behind Eagle Ridge that holds most of the resort's bowl skiing and is reached mainly by the Summit Express, with the Honeycomb Return quad bringing skiers back out. Headwall Forest adds steeper, tree-filled lines for advanced and expert skiers. The Powder Horn II quad and Eagle Express six-pack both reach the top of Eagle Ridge, while the Apex Express serves intermediate runs and the Moonbeam Express feeds the beginner terrain below. The SolBright run loops from the top of Summit down to the Sunrise lift to link across to Brighton. Solitude suits strong intermediates and advanced skiers who want steeps, glades and powder.

    Val Gardena to Alpe di Siusi Lift Link Back in Play After Court Ruling

    Val Gardena to Alpe di Siusi Lift Link Back in Play After Court Ruling

    The Val Gardena-Alpe di Siusi lift link isn’t dead after all. A South Tyrol court has overturned Santa Cristina’s rejection of the new Monte Pana-Saltria link on procedural grounds, after the council skipped required public information sessions. Opponents want the missing sessions held and a fresh vote, and nothing has been approved. For now it’s still a bus between the two, but a plan first floated in 2017 is back in the conversation.

    Whistler Blackcomb Rockslide Zone Stays Closed Through 2026-27 Season

    A section of Whistler Peak terrain will stay closed all 2026-27 season, Vail Resorts has confirmed, with rockslide mitigation work continuing into summer 2027. Peak Express is still expected to run this winter, but locals are already arguing about what’s actually off limits, whether the Whistler Bowl is gone, and why the news landed after pass sales wound down. Here’s where things stand.

    KFC Is Coming to the Slopes at Cortina and Madonna di Campiglio

    Fried chicken is heading up the Dolomites. From 5 December KFC will run two restaurants on the slopes - one at 2,123 metres at Cortina, one at 1,700 metres at Madonna di Campiglio - and the polenta-and-canederli crowd has opinions. Local politicians, conservation groups and plenty of Facebook commenters are calling it a step too far, while others just want a cheaper lunch. Here’s what’s on the menu and what’s the fuss.

    Utah Snow Storm Builds Early-Season Base Ahead of November Openings

    Rain down low, snow up high, and a snow report full of zeros that mostly means ‘not updated yet’. Utah’s first proper storm of 2026-27 is rolling through the Wasatch, Snowbird’s snow stake is closing in on 10 inches, and Brian Head is five days from opening day. Early November snow rarely looks like much, but it is the layer every November opening date is built on. Here is where it stands.
